Abstract
Introduction: In the department of Sucre, although there were epidemiological peaks for COVID cases infection in Health Human Resources, there are no related studies of how this affected the health personnel during the pandemic. Objective: To determine the factors associated with Burnout syndrome in Covid-19 frontline health workers in the Department of Sucre in 2021. Materials and methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study with a correlative approach was conducted on 210 health officials from four institutions. After informed consent, through the MBI-HSS and the socio-occupational and family conditions survey, a reliability analysis (Cronbach’s Alpha) was used to validate them. An analysis of chi-square statistical significance <0.05 was prepared to calculate the association between these instruments. We proceeded to identify the magnitude of the relationship of the variables with Cramer’s V. Results: 64.29% of frontline health personnel manifested a moderate overall percentage of Burnout; in the three-dimensional axis, the emotional fatigue subscale is the most relevant since the signs are severe in 69.05%. Conclusion: We determined statistical significance and moderate relationship between Burnout and labor factors.
